TL;DR: A formal model of free will for complex systems based on emergent properties and adaptive selection is developed, based on a process ontology in which a free choice is a singular process that takes a system from one macrostate to another.
Abstract: In this article, I develop a formal model of free will for complex systems based on emergent properties and adaptive selection. The model is based on a process ontology in which a free choice is a singular process that takes a system from one macrostate to another. I quantify the model by introducing a formal measure of the 'freedom' of a singular choice. The 'free will' of a system, then, is emergent from the aggregate freedom of the choice processes carried out by the system. The focus in this model is on the actual choices themselves viewed in the context of processes. That is, the nature of the system making the choices is not considered. Nevertheless, my model does not necessarily conflict with models that are based on internal properties of the system. Rather it takes a behavioral approach by focusing on the externalities of the choice process.

TL;DR: The results suggest that interoceptive and exteroceptive discriminative control can be methodologically configured in modulating operant behavior during acquisition, extinction, and recovery of behavior; however, configuring interoception and exeroceptive discriminatedinative stimuli do not appear to function as unique cues that differ from each stimulus modality alone.

TL;DR: In the baseline comparison, RCi women were younger, had greater drug addiction severity but better mental health than NCI women, and in the over-time analysis, RCI and NCI 6-month clinical outcome scores improved irrespective of intervention type.
Abstract: Aims: To investigate criminal involvement in relation to treatment outcome in a multisite study. We compared 381 women with recent criminal involvement (RCI, n = 381; past 3 months) to 681 women with no lifetime history of criminal involvement (NCI, n = 681) at baseline and at 6 months from start of treatment (RCI 6 mos: n = 282; NCI 6 mos: n = 556). Methods: Outcome measures were alcohol severity, drug severity, general mental health, and PTSD symptoms. We compared RCI versus NCI women at baseline and compared RCI versus NCI women from baseline to 6 months by treatment condition. Treatment conditions were integrated care for co-occurring disorders versus treatment-as-usual. Age and baseline scores were covariates. Results: In the baseline comparison, RCI women were younger, had greater drug addiction severity but better mental health than NCI women. In the over-time analysis, RCI and NCI 6-month clinical outcome scores improved irrespective of intervention type.
